The Communicative Teaching Method is one of Teaching Methods; What do you know about its objectives,Learner and Teacher Roles
, Because , knowledge and communication ,are related to each other so communicative method is the objective of teaching any subject for the learner o acquire the knowledge and take the partiptary role and provide a good job example so, teacher's role is to use teaching group to involve the learners in discussion.
The objective of Communicate Language Teaching method, is the name indicates, is for the student to communicate through interaction with the target language. Not just study grammar, vocabulary, and syntex (language systems) but language skills that can be applied to the real world. Connect classroom with applicaiton outside the classroom.
For the learner, meaning is paramount. Dialogues are not for memorization but for communication. Contextualizing is the premises, because this sometimes give clearity to grammar. Pronunciation is important, and students L! (native language) used to give clarity, but judiciously(meaning translation is used). Linguistic system will be learned through the process of struggling with communication. Fundamentally communication is the ultimate goal.
Teacher's role is to create an environment where students don't feel ashamed or fearful of making mistakes; learn through trail and error. When grading or evaulating - fluency is the primary goal and accuracy is judge on the context, not the abstract. Intrinsic motivation that hopefully will spring from the interest of what is being communicated.
To pull this off, I really thnk the teacher needs to have a "spark" for teaching the language.
